Hi,

Аccidentally my colleague created a file in the root dir of the git repo called - (just dash).
As result for every commit having this file, diff , merge, cherry-pick maybe others just hang.
I tried to make rebase interactive to edit the commit and remove the file but that fails too.

Haha, it tries to read from standard in:

$ git init && printf '' >- && git add -- - && git commit -m "lol"

Pressing ^D allows it to continue.
